DETAILS: On May 7, Sunset Promotions brings a unique collection of globe-trotting artists together to abuse the beefy Funktion 1 system at Public Works SF. Leading the charge will be the SF debut of DJ Vadim’s new live project “The Electric”. Joining him in this embarrassment of musical riches will be NYC dub legend Dr Israel, LA bass music stalwart R/D, UK Dub-Hop artist Bass Science, and beatmaking songstress Natasha Kmeto. If that isn’t enough to drop jaws, this international invasion will be met by DJ Sep (Dub Mission) and the Slayers Club. Expect to hear live trip hop from the Electric as well as dub, trip hop, dubstep, and electro from the other artists. The Bridge, Sunset’s showcase of eclectic electronic music will once again draw together artists of disparate tastes and styles in a cohesive whole.
DJ Vadim is "a veteran presence in the DJ community as well as one of the foremost producers in too many communities to count, Vadim is never running out of ideas," URB Magazine. He has been described as "one of the few artists creating genuinely new work in the Hip-Hop field" and an artist who "cannot be ignored". DJ, Record label impresario, bandmaster and Airmiles millionaire who has continually toured the globe for nearly 20 years, racking up for than 2,500 shows in 60 countries, performing and working with artists such as Stevie Wonder, Dialated Peoples, DJ Krush, The Roots, and Super Furry Animals, he is also known for working and developing unsigned artists who have gone on to big things. He's been nominated for a Grammy, and written under numerous secret identities. Prolific seems an understatement.
2010 saw Vadim creating Organically Grown Sounds, a new record label founded with Yarah Bravo, and their first project is "The Electric," a new band that sees Vadim joined by Chicago's hottest young rapper, Pugs Atomz and Machester's finest songstress, Sabira Jade: "Electric turns out to be a good word for this latest DJ Vadim creation - sometimes it empowers you, sometimes it shocks you, and sometimes it's a bit dangerous. The Electric are what Black Eyed Peas could be if they didn't suck" Rap News
